    Description

    1879 Silver Dollar in Copper
    Judd-1606, PR67+ Red Cameo

    1879 $1 Dollar, Judd-1606, Pollock-1802, Low R.7, PR67+ Red Cameo PCGS. CAC. Ex: Simpson. William Barber's entry in the 1879 silver dollar pattern series is less known than either Morgan's "Schoolgirl" dollar (Judd-1608) or Charles Barber's "Washlady" motif (Judd-1603). But Judd-1606 is a better value, trading at significantly lower levels despite its slightly greater rarity. The obverse features a relatively small bust left of Liberty, her hair bound by a ribbon. The reverse depicts a perched eagle with unfolded wings. The eagle's claws clutch an olive branch and three arrows, and the eagle hovers above a laurel wreath. Struck in copper with a reeded edge.

    About a dozen Judd-1606 representatives are known. This is the finest example certified at PCGS by the margin of the Plus designation, while NGC reports a couple of PR66 Red Deep Cameo submissions, possibly representing multiple grading events of the same coin (1/21). Either way this is a rarity, and a gorgeous one at that. Each side is rich copper-red with a few areas of slightly deeper violet and orange patina. Field-device contrast is exceptional.
